Lovely staff on reception. Nice place to play badminton

Never liked Kingsway as a teenager, made a poor decision to return for a while, but nothing has changed. Depressing, miserable looking building, doesn't inspire or enthuse you at all.

The place is filthy and in a general state of disrepair. Broken lockers, antiquated showers, archaic facilities. Noone seems to care, but they happily take your money. However I recently came to my senses thinking, 'Why am I actually paying for this?!' Happily training somewhere else now.

Staff seem thoroughly demotivated, lifeguards look like they'd rather not be there at all, some watching the clock more than the water. Pool is dark and gloomy, no windows or natural light. Ugly brick walls, it's like swimming in an underground bunker, dull and dreary. The water is usually filthy as well. Saw a lifeguard lowering a metal, wheelie, mop bucket into the pool to fill it up! Couldn't help wondering what else had it been used for?

Gym is poorly staffed, manned occasionally by an angry looking woman with glasses who never smiles.

Majority of receptionists are glum and unsmiling, with a couple of pleasant and friendly ones as well. The one with tied back fair hair is very rude and snotty, delusions of grandeur.

The new Kingsway building that's under construction looks promising. Let's hope the staff do it justice!

The swimming pool is like a tin can.
The parking of the Centre is small.
I reccomend parking a cross the road on bigger parking.

A really great leisure centre there are lots of facilities and a fantastic swimming pool with swim only lanes. It can get busy as expected but great staff and facilities.

Pool water is fairly warm, changing rooms are dated and need a refurbishment. Limited parking given the size of the building but there's always been spaces when I've gone.
